Assignment 2 - Mystery Play
The second submission requires us to form a group of four and use the Four Square House Design Problem by John Hejduk. We are to divide a 36 x 36m block consisting of 16 9 x 9m squares between our four clients. We then choose one design from the Equus assignment and develop it so that all four designs can co-exist on the site.
Considering they will all be sharing the one site together, it is important to establish the relationship my character, Terry the male park attendant has with the other 3 characters. Terry's three neighbors and the relationship he shares with them are:
Louise Eason
Wolfgang the Trolley Man
Terry doesn't have a lot of similarities with Wolfgang other that that they are both very hard workers and enjoy their jobs vastly. Wolfgang prefers a home that has crazy trolley interiors and enclosed spaces surrounded by solid objects where as Terry prefers the outdoors and freedom.
Stuart Dowie
Lily the Silent Juror
Lily Abott and Terry Hargrave both share a common interest in reading, keeping to themselves and avoiding the drama and technology from the world. Lily also doesn't bother with people unless they share the same interests. Both designs are in their own space and both are form of bridges whether that be in-between two existing buildings or a bridge towering over a river bed.
Paul McFarland
Thor the Lightning Man
Thor and Terry both share common interests in nature. Thor has much appreciation for unobstructed natural light and natural beauty. They both prefer to be alone, however they will assist others who share common interests such as nature, this will benefit my design as there will be a free flowing shared zone of nature between the homes. Thor is also a hard worker which terry can relate to.
